My wife and I recently stayed at Pembroke Townhouse during our honeymoon trip throughout Ireland. We were so happy to have picked Pembroke as our final destination during our trip. We were so pleased with how nice and welcoming it was when we arrived. The welcoming staff, Artem, was so pleasant and helpful getting us all checked in and even upgraded us to a loft for our honeymoon. Anytime we needed anything or had any questions he was available and very helpful. Truly made our stay at Pembroke so special!
The room was so cozy! It was amazing to see the massive windows overlooking the street and how comfortable we were while staying here. It was so nice to be able to go down and get snacks, water, and some of the best pastries available. Even when they ran out of pastries, Artem, ran over to the restaurant and got some more for us. We really were so impressed and pleased with this hotel and their hospitality.
We loved the location of this hotel, it was a quick easy walk to the theatre (15 min walk) and just as close to get up to Grafton Street (25 min walk). It made it so easy to get around the city and see everything we wanted to see.
We highly recommend staying at this lovely hotel when you come to Ireland. We are recommend this to all our friends and family, and will be defiantly staying here again when we return!

Pembroke townhouse is beautiful! We were attending Comic-Con at the RDS for our daughters 16th birthday. RDS is a walkable distance, but we taxied in about 10mins.
The townhouse is a stunningly decorated little gem. We had reserved two rooms, both were identical, on the same floor. The rooms are small, but the high ceiling and large window make it seem much bigger. There is a quirky set of stairs up to a mezzanine level, which contained a sofa bed for our little boy. He’s 5 and absolutely loved having his own space.
Unfortunately we didn’t sleep very well as the noise from the road outside can be quite loud. We live in the country, so maybe we’re not used to city noise. However, the windows didn’t seem great and were incredibly hard to open.
The bathroom was fab! Well equipped with everything you would need. They even thought to leave conditioner sachets. Wonderful. The shower has great pressure and the towels were so soft.
The quilts were folded on the beds when we arrived. I wasn’t keen on that at all. I make the beds up at home, I don’t expect to have to make them up in hotels.
Something that really let it down for me was no tea or coffee facilities in your room. I have a 5yr old chatterbox and an autistic teen, I live on coffee.
There was a little shelf with chocolate and snacks, beware this is not included and must be paid for, same as the minibar. Very over priced snacks and drinks. However, there is a spar just down the road. My daughter made the silly mistake of having two small bottles of water, which then cost me €7!!!!
The room was clean, but I did notice a lot of dust on the light.
When I booked it said “breakfast included”. It does have breakfast but a tiny selection. Cheese and ham croissant, granola, bagel with cream cheese and salmon. It was very tasty and the coffee went down a treat.
The staff are extremely pleasant!

My partner and myself stayed for our pre-valentines celebration. The decor for the facilties were fantastic, very much our own style. We stayed in the Suite room and it was stunning. The bath was the best that I've ever used and we liked it so much that we're going to buy one ourselves! The lighting was beautiful and the bed was super comfy. Breakfast was very nice with a large selection on the menu. Staff were a treat to talk to & we were offered complimentary walnut cake, homemade shortbread biscuits and unlimited teas/coffees. We would definitely visit again.

I used the bathroom in the basement as advised by the receptionist one evening. I went downstairs and found a sign for a disabled bathroom. Once I went in, I found it impossible to exit. The bathroom door in the basement did not unlock no matter how much I tried. There was no alarm cord that is mandatory in disabled bathrooms but as it is a listed building the manager explained that that isn't required. I spent approximately 10 minutes shouting for help and continuing to try and open the door. It was extremely distressing as I was relying on the people being in the rooms nearby to hear me. The receptionist came down after 10 mins and opened the door eventually after someone called for help. I have managed to open and close doors with ease for my entire life without this ever occurring. There should be no trick or tactic required to open a bathroom door for anyone let alone a disabled toilet. The lock was extremely stiff and the receptionist said you need to pull the door towards you. It’s extremely dangerous and it’s a serious issue. I could have been stuck in there for ages.
In general the locks are of very poor quality. The door to my room would not open unless you pulled the whole door towards you while you turned the key so you have to drop everything your carrying to open the door. the bathroom door in my room did not work at all.
I informed management of the locks issue, particularly the door that would not unlock, who advised that they are dealing with it.

We had a lovely evening staying here. Staff could not have been more friendly and attentive. A special touch was the complimentary bottle of wine and signed birthday card from the staff, waiting in the room for the birthday girl. There was a relaxing, calm and friendly atmosphere in the hotel. Guests were encouraged to help themselves to tea, coffee and lovely cake in the reception area. You could bring the tea/coffee to your room. There was no rush at breakfast or checkout. Secure parking was available and we were able to do a nice walk leisurely walk to Stephens Green. A very good location. Highly recommended.

Stayed for two nights here at the end of our Irish trip. Choice the slightly out of town location thinking that it would be peaceful which would offset the need to trek into town. How wrong we were!!! Both our rooms were fairly small and really hot even with the windows open. The rooms looked out over the car park and both nights there was loud music, arguments and general noise until the early hours. Closing windows was not an option. Early mornings then brought early check outs wheeling cases, shouting goodbye etc. The hotel did provide a fan to try and cook the room down but as we could only find two plugs in the whole place it didn’t do that much good as you couldn’t position it near the bed. The lack of tea making facilities is just really strange. The coffee machine is pointed out on checking in but no mention of how to get tea. We did find we could order it but still not really convenient early morning or late night. Trying to get a pot around breakfast when people are checking out, queuing to complain about the noise (yet another set of guests) meant a bit if a wait. The bathroom was a pleasant surprise with a great shower. Unfortunately the drain couldn’t cope with the water flow so the shower overflows onto the floor. Tried the pastries one evening. Half were still frozen and the croissants were tough and a bit stale. Overall……. Really disappointed especially for the price.

The Pembroke Townhouse certainly proved to be a hidden gem within the reach of Dublin's inner city.
The hotel is located approximately 700m from the dart line at Lansdowne road which is 1.90 single from Connolly station. I mean what more could you ask for. So easy to find and so convenient with amazing value for money..
The Townhouse is not your typical Irish hotel it feels more like a guesthouse but with rooms at as little as 135 euro a night in Dublin why would you complain. The room we had was a standard double the bed was tej only let down one side of the bed certainly didn't have the same support as the other I feel maybe there was a spring in the mattress broken by previous over energetic guests doing some pilates.... I'm not very tall at 6 foot but unfortunately due to the bed having a padded foot board is meant I couldn't stretch out as I didn't have leg room. Now these are small complaints but might be worth considering when booking and if your staying in Dublin you should definitely consider this location. The room was cosy not overly spacious but what it lacked in size it made up for with character. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

This could be an absolutely gorgeous boutique hotel - impressive building, elegant location and some nice features in the rooms… BUT… the service is disappointing. The hotel is understaffed and the staff that we met seem to lack training and enthusiasm. The lobby, hallways and rooms could do with a bit of revamp to justify the hefty price too. The breakfast is fine but basic.

The room was great! Comfy, clean, quiet and great value. The location was a tad less central than booking.com stated but it’s a lovely quiet spot of the city. Easy base to explore.
The downsides… Breakfast was overpriced for an extremely basic “breakfast”. We were offered “bagel or croissant”… that’s an incredibly limited menu for £20. The server didn’t appear to have a uniform, totally inappropriate dress which was very short, with bare legs… just a no when serving food. Worrying lack of care shown with hygiene, for example she forgot her mask twice, and didn’t sanitise her hands at all the whole 30 minutes we sat there. If management appeared to be present I would have mentioned this at the time but there wasn’t anyone around.
I know firsthand that the industry is hit with a staffing crisis but basic training is a must.
Left disappointed with our stay which is a shame as the room was great!

Dear Sarch 33 Thank you for taking the time to post the review in relation to your recent stay at Pembroke Townhouse. We value customers' feedback and try our best to improve and fix the mistakes. I am sorry to hear that you did not like our Continental breakfast and consider it being overpriced. Please note the Restaurant offers selection of cereals, mueslis, yoghurts, toasts, jams, followed by the Salmon Bagel, Ham & Cheese Croissant & Avocado Sandwich and Poached Eggs, followed by selection of dessert. The above menu is served with Freshly Brewed Tea/ Coffee and Orange Juice at the price of €11.50. The staff member who served breakfasts to you covers also Reception duties, hence her uniform was not particularly fit for the food service - I agree. We will try to find a solution for this issue. Every staff member who has recently joined us had gone through Food Safety Level 1 & 2. I am sorry I could not have the opportunity to discuss your comments on site that particular day of your visit. Kind regards

Sorry we didn’t have the breakfast, I’m sure it will be lovely. There are complimentary croissants in the reception waiting area a couple of times a day, these are gorgeous.
